he was aiding them thereby. Mr.. Reichenbach,
he learned refused to take the pictures out OF the
ndOw at the dictation OF the WOmen'S Christian
Temperance Union, but when he learned there
was an order OF the chief OF police he promptly
complied with it, Mr.. ReichenDach had also
shown him letter from the Richmond firm, in
which they say that il it is violation OF law they
will not send any more OF the pictures to this city.
Mr. Lavender said that If these ladies (meanng the

investigated by the grand jury, as Mr.. WOrthing-
ton thought that was o better course to pursue.

Mr. Wheeler Suffering from Softening
of the Brain and Other DiSeaSes.

AKs ~ heeleE suffering from SCREENING
of the Brain and Other Diseases.
ALBANY, n. Y, June 3-The Malone Palladium
has the following statement Of the illness Of
eX-Fice President William A. Wheeler: For ten
days he has been conscious and rational only at
intervals, and for the past two or three days has
been In stupor the greater part OF the time. He
Is suffering from softening Of the brain and there
are Indications OF approaching paralysis. A car
buncle has appeared just above the hip on one
side and has become an element of further weak
ness.
1t seems impossible that he can rally, and his
death at any hour would not be surprising, though
ne may survive for several days. Mr.. Wheeler had
been slowly failing through the past five or six
years. until last winter, when the progress Of the
disease became more rapid and his physician and
IrlendS began to fear the approach of the end. On
the night OF March 3 he was seized with chills,
followed by sinking spell and DR.. Gay
thought for hours that he would die. He
afterward rallied, however. but never again
regained his former vigUr and strength. Mental
weakness gradually became apparent and in
creased until, first there were indications of in
sanity, and now OF helpleSsneSS and UNCONSCIOUS
ness. The hearts OF friends are heavy and the
community feels that 1t has lost its most eminent
ana helpful member, but for MIR. Wheeler himself
death has no dread Insomnia has tortured him;
incurable maadieS have given him years Of agony,
ana no near relative remained to him to share his
a1111ction or cheer his deSOiate home. A. world Of
friends will mourn him, but to him the change
